May 3, 2020

During these unprecedented times, we must learn to adapt to a new schedule and try to remain positive. But this isn’t always easy.

Teachers are amongst the key workers who are under a large amount of stress and pressure to persevere during these times.

That’s why prioritising mental health is essential, especially during these times of uncertainty.

Try these 3 ways to help with teacher wellbeing:

Goals can be anything from self-care to weekly objectives.
Why not try setting a range of multipurpose goals, like doing something relaxing, as well as completing any tasks.
Perhaps delegate some downtime every day for reflecting and mindfulness.

It is important to recognise that times are a little different. Not everything will be easy, and being aware of this is key for personal growth.
Try rewarding yourself when goals are completed.
This can be taking a break, like watching a film or reading a book.
Recognising your achievement during these trying times will help you to progress.

When working from home, it is important to have a separate working environment and home environment.
This involves trying to work primarily during your working hours and having a separate workspace for completing work.
This will help to prevent stress and avoid being overwhelmed at home.
